SigO (since 1989) is the only one left. His religion prevents him from bailing out on me. I ache for him.
Basically, since 2008, he is a long term care aide.
I want a better life for a person who has endured so much. He deserves more.
I burned all my bridges also for being self destructive. Many people are probably waiting for me to die. I have zero friends.
I'm in the same boat.
The fact you say these people are still interested in you shows that you do have friends, or at least have the connections to make friends...wouldn't say you've burned any bridges if that's true.
Only speaking from my experience: those who are still interested in me are indulging in Schadenfreude.
Yes, over last 7 years. Was carer for my wife she bed bound and very I'll. Then most friends back out. She died 3 years ago. Life fell apart, now broken, in shithole, one parasite says is freind bit isn't. All family dead. Cant approach old friends for shame of getting where I am and losing everything. Really dont want any anymore, shutting down , turning down,
My true friends exist but I have lost contact, check on some at times on web and social media but cant contact them, and wont. Next they will hear will be my ctb. Prob in news next week.
Sorry waffle, am bipolar and on manic mode at moment. Feel paradoxically euphoric with my ctb plan.
Kudos to you for caring for your wife.

I haven't had friend for 14 years. I have a chronic physical illness and it has kept me from being social and I'm a very social person. I'm in solitary confinement every day. It's like Shawshank over here
same here. medical condition keeps me isolated. pushed friends away years ago. family is worthless

Exact same reason here. I have a very bad nerve condition in my ears, one of many places that makes sound impossible to deal with. The pain is unbearable. My condition is actually called the suicide disorder. My family isn't worth much either. It's hard isn't it? I went from being a healthy 20 year old who worked and went to to school and had friends to just one day having something happen to her and then I spent the rest of my days inside. I never saw it coming and it destroyed me.
It's best not to have friends. It's less to go wrong. Have a chit chat to strangers instead,
It's not best to not have friends. People need social contact or they wind up like the people on this page. Don't you see what lonliness has done to people?
I've never had a real friend.
Never? That breaks my heart!

same here :)
i can be so nice and so destructive
hard to see the destructive force after there was another war with somebody
but also at least i can accept myself now that I know a way to exit it seems much easier to accept myself

I haven't been in contact with any IRL friends in 7 years. There are people who remember me and are even still interested in me from those days but I would probably just disappoint and anger them with what I've become.

I burned all of my bridges being insanely self-destructive and avoidant...

Is being friends with your family count?. I don't have friends outside family.

Pretty much I don't. I have maybe two people I talk to sometimes but it seems they don't want to talk to me most of the time so I don't really know why I bother.

This thread is perhaps the most sad one on the forum. It's one thing to die and then you don't feel anything, but it's another to be completely alone but conscious day after day after day, knowing you have one way or another caused your own isolation. Such is my case too. I don't know why I bought a box of 10 Christmas cards to mail out. I have no one to send them to.

I'm a very sociable guy and can make friends very easily, however when it comes to say "real" friends I have none, specially because i trust no one. I am very close to my family and spend most of my time with them, specially my little brother.

So in conclusion family is everything (for me) and people will each teach you something and will most likely betray you.

Does anyone else have no friends or connections left?

In RL, I don't. I never had actual friends growing up. Like I moved around a bit, and no one interacted with me beyond the requirement of school. During college, I found it to be highly similar. I asked someone about it, and they said I have a bad vibe. As far as I can tell, it's because I'm different due to my autism. But that's more of a guess.
My family for the most part is the same. The only ones who interact with me outside of when they are forced is my grandparents on my dad's side, a small amount from his side, and my parents. But I think my grandparents on the 1 side does interact with me is because no one really interacts with them. They aren't an ass, but they have nothing really to offer but love and judgment. Like they always have been in poverty, and currently something as simple as a hamburger they have to split because they can't afford 2 of them. Over the past number of years I've been secretly paying for their cable bill, and my dad and I are the only ones who really come over to fix anything or give them anything to make them comfortable. And this happens often, we are about a 4 hour round trip from them, and most of the family is literal walking distance to 15 min from them. Many of my family they haven't seen over 5 years, but I try to call them every few weeks and visit every few months. In short, I'm better than nothing.

My parents interact with me mostly by force since I still live with them. But, they once in a long while do something out of their way. With that being said, I notice many times they wish I was never born.
Pretty much the rest of the family hates my guts for literally no reason, or they don't see me as anything different from another stranger on the street. Since HS I never gotten a Happy B-day, Merry Christmas, etc. My grandmom on my mom's side called me an unwanted guess that won't leave the last time I seen her. My sister has caused me hell by her lying about my parents, but for no second has anyone asked me what is true. They hated us already, and it just gave them a reason. Like some of them that were in law enforcement knew how bad she is and the people who she hangs out with. When we brought her in, they warn us to make sure our security system is up to date. But outside of warning us that she or someone she knows might kill us. They have nothing to do with us.

I have some online friends. Well 1 online friend. I think he is a NEET, and he seems to be OK. But we never seen each other in RL, and I have no idea what he looks like. We became friends after he helped me learn ARK.
We don't talk as much as I would like, and it kinda sucks.

To be honest, if my parents died I might off myself. Even more if my grandparents were already dead. I hate being lonely, and I'm extremely sick of things not working out.


With this in mind, I think much of my problem is really on myself. One of the things that is keeping me from getting into a romantic relationship is because I'm not financially stable, and I don't want to start a relationship until then. If I stopped caring, then I might be able to find someone. And I could move to areas like DC to work around those who are interested in things I am (tech), but for whatever reason I don't.

I technically have friends, but I now have nobody I connect with anymore. It feels worse than having nobody to talk with. But leaving hopefully won't make me feel as guilty. I don't bring any value to anyone I still talk to.

It's like being around people and feeling alone.

That said, your comment had value to me. It's hard to explain the aloneness to others unless they've been thru it too.
